For a talent like metcalf? I would bet yes. 75% of those WRs will be busts most likely
Well TBH I consider Metcalf the second best WR on the Seahawks, he's actually sorted of limited in his route running and I some times wonder if he has a eye problem as he seems to have a hard time locating the ball until it's almost ready to hit him which has led to some embarrassing drops. He is a amazing athlete though. So what teams you feel would offer a ton to trade for Metcalf?For a talent like metcalf? I would bet yes. 75% of those WRs will be busts most likely

Oh hell the cost for Adams was crazy but for some reason Pete was in love with what he might be. Metcalf is a talent but he could be so much more if develops. Besides the limited route running and eyesight problem he's majorly immature, he brags about getting into the heads of defenders but I feel he usually ends up on the wrong side of all that, with late hits and cheap shots and losing his cool. He's got size. he has speed, he's going to win physically fighting for the ball, but dang he's got a ways to go to be a top WR yet he might end up being special, but he's not there yet and doesn't have the track record to command major capitol like say Adams or even Hill and the big salary he's looking for requires someone loving him like Pete loved Adams and I'm just not seeing that happening.I think people do see his flaws and they are fixable ones but it's the fact of what he just does and how. Huge mismatch, top flight speed 24 year old which looks to be around a 1000 yard guy every year with 10 TD's ....TEN! that's basically his average. If anyone thinks he has peeked you are crazy. If Jamal Adams is worth 2 first DK should be worth that and more. Hell Wilson should have got us another first in my eyes.... I'm bias.

The Bears make sense as they have cap space and a young QB who needs weapons, yet they were not mentioned as a landing spot for a WR this off season so I'm guessing they don't put a high value on a WR as they have only signed cheap FAs and low draft pick to fill their need at WR (Pringle and Velus Jones). Jags have spent their cap on pricey FA WRs ( Kirk and Zay Jones) all ready so don't feel would make a play. Around the league I feel there is a gap on how teams value the WR position. Many (most I think) feel that the draft yearly is chalk full of promising WRs (even if most who don't work out) that are dirt cheap and you just need to sort through them to find a keeper. Occasional an opportunity arrives where a team that working on building a contender and has a promising rookie QB will give a good price for a top WR, but will also consider the draft an option. The Jets were that team, but at the end decided they weren't going to pay through the nose and instead drafted very early a top WR prospect.The bears and jaguars have young QBs and are hurting at WR.
Watched this video and thought it shows that routes and play calling have multiple options. I mention that because I've heard here from a select few that the reason RW goes long is because Pete and the OC game plan and the WRs routes force RW to do so. Judge for yourself.
I always thought it looked like Wilson was always wanted to make the big play and passing off on the "easy" play. I don't feel like he had to much trouble seeing over the middle, I feel like he did not ever want to make those throws. Like he would say I can get better. Wilson's game would have been deadly if he would just make more of those easy check downs or dink and dunk plays that he would always look off of because then his long game would open up for him. It's almost like he doesn't have the patience to play the short game and hell who knows maybe that's why Pete and the FO decided to move away from Wilson. You get that short game going and teams can't play 2 high or even line-up in that formation pre-snap if you are abusing the short area. The Rotation from the two high look needed to be exploited more and it was maddening watching them bang their head against a wall every week. IT WAS THERE all year long for the taking.

Yep I remember that, also the the broken Nose TD pass by Stouffers, the escape by Krieg finally in KC to throw the winning TD to Paul Skansi ... so many great and/or amazing moments in the Hawks History for a franchise thats only been around since 1976.Just for fun, you guys remember this play ?
Or discuss how much the Seahawks O-Line has improved.

This would be a Jerry Jones type moveWell TBH I consider Metcalf the second best WR on the Seahawks, he's actually sorted of limited in his route running and I some times wonder if he has a eye problem as he seems to have a hard time locating the ball until it's almost ready to hit him which has led to some embarrassing drops.

It would, don't think Jerry has the ammo though.This would be a Jerry Jones type move
Micha Parsons would be the starting point.It would, don't think Jerry has the ammo though.
